New bull

Made a trip to several ranches and saw lots of cows and bulls. At the last stop we found this guy. He does alot of things right by looking at him, plus he is out of a real good cow, he performed good and scanned great. Plus he has real good shaped feet. In his 5 generation pedigree, 15 cows show up and only 2 are under 100 MPPA and they average 103 MPPA. Should be real maternal and pretty much an outcross for our program. We ended up buying him over the phone on Saturday.

SJRA 508 Lantry 734
Reg. # 1163862
BW: 89 lbs
WW: 734 lbs - 103 ratio
YW: 1230 lbs - 108 ratio
IMF - 5.11% 146 ratio
REA - 15.53 sq. inches - 114 ratio (1.26 sq. inches/cwt)

1.4/36/70/22/40/12/.10/.15

These aren't the best photos but it is all the ranch that raised him emailed me.

BRG- Like I told you in the PM- my cousin has used the Spear J bulls for years and really likes them...Heres a few snapshots of some odds and ends of his cows looking over my fenceline...And like I said- these cows truly run on the proverbial "3 cows per section on a good year- but we've never seen a good year" pasture- but the year these were taken it was so bad they had to sell the calves in September...These pictures were taken just after they'd moved the cows to the hay meadow for the winter and they were still grazing- and getting 10-15lbs of hay... Not in too bad of shape for cows that were spending most their time walking for water and looking for the occasional grass spear during the summer of 06.....

That bull definately has the cow-maker look about him. The maternal grandsire looks longer than a freight train! Both show easy fleshing which is always desirable in a cow. Good luck with him.

I don't know for sure when the photo was taken, but I am guessing she took it about 3 to 4 weeks ago and he was born 3/13/07.
